ABSTRACT

Ayurveda is an ancient lifestyle practice which aims to create harmony within the human body, based on naturalistic approach. Nasya is one amongst the five shodhana karma. Sira is the site of eleven indriyas (Cognitive & Conative organ) and then occupies the first place in the list of vital organs. Hence Nasa should be choosen as the path to administer various drugs which are supposed to act over the structure of Sira. Keeping this in mind volatile, slightly water soluble and and highly lipid soluble substance like Taila and Ghrita is used for Nasya. Dose is a very important factor in any of the Panchakarma procedures to get optimum efficacy of the therapy. Bindu is the unit of measurement explained for the dose of Nasya. Bindu is not equal to drop as mentioned in classics that it is the quantity of Drava that dribbles down when the first two digits of index finger are dripped into it and taken out. In routine Ayurvedic practice one Bindu is considered as one drop (0.05ml), but according to the definition of Bindu and standardized quantity mentioned by Acharayas, it is 1 Shana which is ten times more than routinely practiced dose. So, in current attempt one pilot study was conducted in 10 subjects before starting the clinical trial on Cerebral Palsy in which Panchendriyavivardhna Taila was used for Nasya Karma in dose of 2 Bindu as Pratimarsha Nasya. Quantity of one Bindu for Panchendriyavivardhna Taila was 0.52ml.

Keywords: Nasya, Panchendriyavivardhna Taila, Bindu, Cerebral Palsy.
